Anyone from the Ewing/Trenton area know the distance to Island?

Since my speedometer isn't accurate I don't know what the real miles were yesterday. I just filled up the SS today and it was a little over 8 gallons so I think I actually got in the low to mid teens mpg yesterday driving up and back!

To Toms River it was 115 miles yesterday. 2 ways of going 115 or 135 miles. Try mapquest.

Looks like it was around 50 miles each way so that brings me in around 12.5 mpg roughly. Not too bad for a 396/375 hp setup. That puts me in SUV territory!

That is about right Jeff. 50-60. Your are closer than I am , so probably closer to 50.

Now do a .62 OD TKO tranny.....
